He is worse than just a harmless britpop stan, behind the fake perky everybloke front he is quite a bigoted prick.

the fookin thing was around when I first read the music press. Thought it was stupid then too

I remember when the NME started to write the word fuck uncensored. a momentous day. suddenly it felt like we could do anything

Yeah, the fookin thing was always around - as well as other ways of transcribing accent phonetically - especially during Madchester. It did always come across as awfully patronising.
I was a weird teenager who assumed I was on the verge of being interviewed extensively by the NME and Melody Maker, and I was very paranoid about this. I remember taking elocution lessons specifically to ensure I couldn't be done over in this way. The first proper gig I went to was the Manic Street Preachers in Edinburgh in early 1992. Afterwards, me and my friend ended up in their dressing room. No one else: just me, him and the Manics. Dismal times for the Manics no doubt. I had the ear of Richey Manic and all I really talked to him about was whether he felt he had to make a special effort to talk proper to the music press. He didn't.

Is this real?
I genuinely can't tell what is satire in this article and what is for real. I never get most British comedy or puns....minus Fawlty Towers.

I only ever read the NME between '89 and '91 and can't even remember their swearing policy, am sure Swells used to swear a lot, bless his soul.

I don’t mean that tedious “wahey, boobz and bantz!” kind of laddishess.
I mean an old-fashioned, faintly roguish joy in just being a cheeky tearaway who likes football, beer, rock music and male bonding. Let’s have it! Mad fer it! Parklife! Etc.
You couldn't get a fucking fag paper between these stereotypes. Does Liam Gallagher stopping a huge gig and refusing to play until he sees a "bird with her tits out" on the big screen count as "wahey, boobs and bantz" or "roguish mad fer it cheeky tearaway"?
I voted for blood sausage in accordance with my duty as a British ilxor.
